the harbour
by chancay
there are at all 11 different called harbours in Kiel. The new Noray-harbour from where the "Color-Line" connects to Oslo every day, the Sweden-harbour with daily connection to Göteborg by Stena-lin and the Ostsee (baltic sea) Harbour from where the "TransRussiaExpress" connects three times the week to St. Petersburg, but only cargo are the biggest. Besides there are two yacht harbours and several more smaller harbour parts.
Kieler Schiffahrtsmuseum und Museumsbrücke
by Gentleman75
Well, I'm in a German shipping museum again. There are a lot of smaller-bigger shipping museums in the sea-side cities (Wilhelmshaven, Laboe, Flensburg, Bremerhaven etc) in Germany and I like to visit these ones very much.
There were some very nice diarama in the museum. If You would like to see more, then take a look at this travelogue.
Opening hours:
10 - 18 every day
from 15th October to 14th April:
10-17 tuesday to saturday
Museumsbrücke closed

Kiel, a relatively small city in Northern Germany (bearing in mind i live in Melbourne, pop. 3million). Beautiful countryside - best in winter. Great shopping, great history. Right on the doorstep of Scandanavia!
